Arise and Purify

Sometimes we find ourselves feeling...well... stuck. It
often comes in waves. Work gets complicated despite our best efforts to add
value...we miss more workouts than we should... and personally life seems a
bit off track.

When was the last time you decided to stand up for
yourself?What was the tipping point
that made you realize you needed to take action? Doing something, even what
most would consider a small step, can do wonders for your mindset.

Don't let others define you. You know who you are and
what you have done and will continue to do. Stay true to yourself. Lead with
that attitude!

Purify

Once you've allowed yourself to focus on you, block out
the noise from those who judge you unfairly. Create a plan to literally move
yourself forward.

Maybe that is a new way to manage your workload; maybe it is a
transition to integrate technology into your world; or maybe it is time to
find a new job that will meet your personal and professional goals.

Allow yourself the freedom to go for it. Recognize that
you might feel nervous or afraid. That's okay. Allow yourself to be overwhelmed
with the fear of an unknown future. That's okay too.

There is nothing wrong with fear. But there is something
wrong with living a life where you never stare fear down and take control.

How About You

Today is your day. Not tomorrow, not next week, and for
God's sake not during New Year's resolution season. Today. Arise and purify yourself.
